In a super weak conference. How did these teams do outside of the conference?


So over “the MA is weak”, “DMV players aren’t good”, “DMV coaches are washed”, “DMV doesn’t have P4 recruits”.

CSA, VDA, RU are all ranked in the top 25 ECNL clubs. NC Courage normally is too but had a bad year last year. That’s 3/10 NA teams in the top 25 clubs.

Use your google.

Unfortunately, you have to rely on GotSport which is highly inaccurate (for example Arlington 2013 RL is ranked higher than Arlington 2014 NL) or Soccer Rankings which does give points for both tournaments outside of conference and regular league/conference games.


If you look at the actual rankings app, it will say FVU 2012 #1 . Thanks Arlington Dad, we do not do gotsport rankings here.


Ranked #1 relying on one player kick and run style. That won’t cut it next season. And then MV made a blunder when adding to the 2026/27 roster. You are up for a nice surprise. You don’t believe it, just wait until next fall games. Remember this post lol.

Yes, and they rely on the County to clear fields. Missed 2 weeks of practice due to snowcrete.

They had indoor space all that time save the two days we could not go anywhere. Troll be trolling


Other teams in the area practice roughly 2.5 more hours a week. Over the course of a league year or 50 weeks that’s 125 hours of team training FVU is not doing. That is a lot of time and a huge detriment to their development and could be the reason the older teams at FVU are not good enough to make the showcases.

However those practices were at a time of day where only a select few could attend.

FVU parent here. There definitely was a significant amount of chaos and confusion with the 2011 team this last year, but there already is a completely different vibe with the new coach, very professional and all the girls who are staying on the team seem to be buying in. Yes the team will lose lots of talented players, but this year it feels that they will actually play as a team with better coaching. No need to keep bashing FVU, you just sound like a jilted ex, move on and enjoy these last few years you have watching your DD play club soccer. Hope you find what you are looking for on your team of choice.

Said the ringleader over at FVU.


FVU needs to come up with FVU RL to help with finances. Seems like they can’t afford showcases. Add that to the to poor boys program and you get a recipe for disaster. Just a matter of time before that ECNL program gets pulled off.

FVU is a disaster. The girls who went there this past year realize it, and the girls who are going there for next year will soon realize it. The boys have always been a disaster. Brave 2.0


100% agree. In VA there are 3 legitimate ECNL teams Arlington, VDA and RU. That Fairfax club only carries the badge and with MV, there 0 exposure. Just wait and see next year.

FVU is so cooked, their leadership is atrocious. They're just hanging on because they still have an ECNL badge (for now), but the same terrible foundation that was Brave.


No, they'll be fine. Once Arlington goes MLSN/GA next year, then there are only 2 ECNL clubs left in the area. VDA can't absorb everyone. FVU will be just fine. People have been predicting their demise for a long time. Much like a cockroach in a nuclear blast they will survive.


Trust me they won’t. Being an ECNL team that does not go to showcases is pointless. I better take my DD to a top GA team than trusting MV and co to get me exposure. Sorry.


Do you know any players who left FVU to go to a top GA team voluntariliy (not because of lack of an offer)?


Well at least they make playoffs. When was the last time an FVU team made playoffs? Aside from the 2010s before they collapse this year.

No playoffs = No exposure

So which way you prefer?


FVU is the STJ of ECNL!!!! lmao

And a clueless B license manager who claims to be the coach and director standing on the field selecting sub par players with CW watching powerlessly. Watch that boomerang come back bite FVU next season. Long gone the mighty union of CW unfortunately. Such a pity.


He may personally be "clueless." I can't speak to that. However, a B license is adequate for the level he is coaching and for just about every other team in the league.

There is a coach in the area who claims a higher license but is not a good coach from what I have seen. Youth coaches don't really need a A or pro level license to do their job.
